Blogzilla

I was reading comments from my past blogs (I sound like I've been blogging for years..more like 2 days.) and noticed this comment left by anonymous:

"I thought you were a believer, someone who’d wanna blog about your ideals..."
Anonymous, oh no..you didn't. I AM a believer. I BELIEVE you're a big jerk. I will blog about my ideals when I'm good and ready. If you don't like it..you can get out.

Anyyyyyyyyyyywaysss





I don't have anything to blog about today. Most people just wouldn't blog if they didn't have anything to say...but I'm not normal people.
I'm realizing more and more that I have an addictive personality. Meaning pretty much anything I find enjoyable I can't practice moderation with.
For example.. (I'll leave out the example of partying..my parents read my blog now. My mom was upset in my last blog when I used the word "Fart"..my brothers and I had to use the word "Toot" while we were growing up. Don't really know why that's any better. I digress.), working out I find enjoyable so I do it every day. Yes, you are supposed to work out every day in MODERATION, but I'll work out every day for at least 2 hours. And I tweek out if I miss a day. Not..normal.

Another example is facebook. This is not a surprise to many of you who know me. I am guaranteed to be on facebook. I check it at least once every hour if I'm home. I HAVE to update my status, wish every facebooker happy birthday, poke, reject farmville and mafiawar requests, stalk exboyfriends...you get it. I probably facebook at work more than I actually do work at work (shhhh!)

Probably the worst thing that brings out my addictive personality, though, isssss junk food. Particularly ice cream. I'm being completely serious right now. It's a problem. I mean..just look at my blog profile picture. I have at least 2 bowls of ice cream every day..after my normal sized meals. These are not just bowls of ice cream either. They have peanut butter in them..chocolate syrup..oreos..whipped cream..absolutely heavenly. My addiction is so bad this chubby kid I know bet me $50 I can't go now until the end of summer without eating it. I took on the challenge. (Wondering if this bet still counts while I'm in Europe this June...different area codes????).

So..blogging is becoming something else that brings out my addictive personality. In fact, I'll go ahead and call myself a Blogzilla. I caught myself quizzing my friends about things I have written so far to see if they really read it (Sorry Dave). I get mad at my friends who are working and don't have time to read my blog.

Its already taking over my life. I ate Reeses Puffs for breakfast and I thought "Can I blog about this?" Ran out of warm water in the shower and thought, "Can I blog about this?" Bought a scented candle that doesn't smell like anything.."can I blog about this??" Anything that happens to me..I think.."Hmm..can I blog about that?"
Oh..almost forgot..I met someone in a bar last night and told him I'd blog about him (Hey Cutco Guy! Hope you sell some knives..sorry I lied to you about kareoke.)

My friend asked me a question and I replied, "I'm sorry. You'll have to read my blog."

Is this going to get so bad that I won't have normal conversations with people? I can see it now..

Friend: Hey Andrea, how are you?
Me: Juuuuust...Read my blog.

  1. You seem to be a very interesting person. Your blogs are very interesting and funny. eg how you can blog about not having anything to blog about. i might be your biggest fan at the rate that your going. Anyway, about your addictive personality, that might just mean that you alwayz hold on to have and know., Now about the CHUBBY kids, he/she might know more than you think.. Careful were you put your money.. I bet he/she is HUNGRY and cant wait to spend his winning on some Ice Cream.. Choclt Mint...

  3. I am completely flabbergasted at the fact that you have begun to blog. Not only is blogging a dead practice because of the emergence of facebook and Twitter, the word blogging itself is the most rediculios word to describe a persons random thoughts just before tweeting. My advice to you is to stick to your day job.

  5. The whole blog obsession is only going to get worse. And you're only going to annoy more friends and possibly even lose one or two over it. They're a casualty of war. One time, my friend asked me what my fave Golden Globes dress was, and I go; "My second fave is (whoever it was) and then I go; NO MORE FREEBIES, you'll have to read my blog:)". She was like; "oooooookkkkkaaaayyyyy Courtney. Whatever you say." I felt like a total loser immediately. Don't let this happen to you. Learn from my many many blogging obsession/friend loss/loss of life/not enough sleep mistakes.
